Virtual 2020
Get Ready
We're Bringing the Experience to You!
Let’s face it, this year caught us all off guard. It’s been rough for tourism, but we can regroup as a team and propel our industry to new levels. Let’s cut the business buzzspeak and get back to the basics we in the adventure industry know so well, so we can move forward together smarter than ever. We’re a community of entrepreneurs, moonshot dreamers, storytellers, and above all, survivors. 2020 has introduced incredible challenges along with rare opportunities, and this year’s Springboard theme will provide inspiration and tools to help your business launch into the next phase of adventure travel.
Traditionally AdventureELEVATE is an annual North America-based two-day intensive educational and networking conference that brings together thought-leaders and practitioners for inspiration, education, and insights into the trends that shape our industry year-round. For AdventureELEVATE 2020 the ATTA is pushing reset and bringing in a new vibe; the presentations and conversations you’ll find are geared toward moving the industry forward with a focus on the positive. We invite you to join familiar faces in a virtual venue to listen, share, and build together, and Springboard into the future.

About ATTA’s Virtual Event Experience
More than just a webinar, our virtual event is an interactive global experience for the adventure industry.

Four planned networking events to ensure your access to the community you’ve missed. We’ve digitized our mainstay networking events including our famous Disruptive Networking Adventure, AdventureExchange, and even introduced brand new community-led round tables.

Showcase your brand to our delegation. Run a contest, do a giveaway, share a video, and engage with potential clients and partners at your business or destination’s own digital booth. Contact us to secure your booth by September 1st!

Talking is allowed during our sessions! The side conversation brings traditional keynotes to a new level. If you’ve got a question, ask it! Got something to contribute to the conversation, say it! Our delegate support team is also present to make sure you know where to go next.

Connect directly with delegates throughout the event at whatever time zone is convenient for you. Ample networking time matches you with other delegates, and impromptu meetings can occur anytime during our virtual event.
